Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

Tate Gallery Liverpool, Albert Dock, Liverpool (0151-709 3223) open today

In case you hadn't heard, the Tate Gallery of the North has just reopened after a pounds 6.96m (count 'em) redevelopment scheme. So what is there to see in all these tarted-up spaces? Well, there are three major exhibitions on at the moment. The Tate's entire holdings of Cubist art have left London, for the first time, to be shown in The Spirit of Cubism - some 40 paintings, sculptures, drawings and collages by Picasso, Braque et al. Urban is a sample of works from the National Collection of Modern Art relating to representations of city life. And the new top-floor galleries at the Tate make as good a starting point as any for artstranspennine98 - a series of commissioned art works being shown at sites, indoors and out, between Liverpool and Hull. It's the largest exhibition of its kind ever to have been organised in England. Is that enough to be getting on with?
